VIDEO: Hugh Jackman Gets Puppet-fied in WOLVERINE - THE MUSICAL!

Hugh Jackman will soon be seen up on the big screen in the highly anticipated action film THE WOLVERINE. However, the X-Man takes on a somewhat softer persona in a new video posted on Mashable.com, WOLVERINE-THE MUSICAL! Check it out below!

Jackman has been 'puppet-fied' in the footage as he sings show tunes from such classics as Oklahoma and Chicago. He also makes some slight lyrical adjustments as he sings the virtues of Wolvernie's bravery, toughness and physical superiority.

The actor made his Broadway debut portraying the 1970's singer-songwriter Peter Allen in The Boy From Oz, for which he received the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actor in a musical as well as Drama Desk, Drama League, Outer Critics Circle and Theatre World Awards.

He made his first major U.S. film appearance as Wolverine in the first installment of the X-Men franchise, a role he reprised in the enormously successful X2 and 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand. He reprised his role in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, one of the most successful 'prequels' of all time.

On February 22, 2009, Jackman took on the prestigious role of Oscar host as he fronted "The 81st Annual Academy Awards." Previously, Jackman served as host of the Tony Awards three years in a row from 2003-2005, earning an Emmy Award for his 2004 duties at the 58th annual ceremony, and an Emmy nomination for the following year.

In the fall of 2009, Jackman made a return to Broadway in a sold-out engagement of Keith Huff's A Steady Rain co-starring Daniel Craig.

Other films Jackman has starred in include Darran Aronofsky's The Fountain, Christopher Nolan's The Prestige, Woody Allen's Scoop and opposite Nicole Kidman in Baz Luhrmann's epic Australia. In addition, he leant his voice to the animated features Happy Feet and Flushed Away. He has also played leading roles in DreamWork's Real Steel, Someone Like You, Swordfish, Van Helsing and Kate and Leopold, for which he received a 2002 Golden Globe nomination.

Hugh recently enjoyed a record breaking, SRO run at New York's Broadhurst Theatre in Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway. He starred in Tom Hopper's big screen adaptation of 'Les Miserables.'
